Can somebody explain to me the reason for [KPSE_DOT]
I've forgotten, if I ever knew. Thomas?
I have a few observations, not especially related to the original report.
1) kpathsea/expand.c says (and implements):
/* If $KPSE_DOT is defined in the environment, prepend it to any relative
path components. */
2) the fmtutil script only actually uses KPSE_DOT in
recreate_by_hyphenfile:
./*)
hyphenfile="$KPSE_DOT/"`echo "$hyphenfile" | sed '[EMAIL PROTECTED]@@'`
;;
*)
hyphenfile="$KPSE_DOT/$hyphenfile"
3) mktexpk and mktextfm use KPSE_DOT (in an unimportant way, just to
move a log file) without defining it, as far as I can see.
